I've always loved Classic TV. I Love Lucy, Dick Van Dyke Show, and today more modern classics like Everybody Loves Raymond. My Mom would watch TV with a discerning eye. She will, to this day, look at the rooms and the props, Many times she has turned to me and asked if I like the wall paper in the scene or do you think those shelves would work in our dining room? At a young age I started to do the same. I noticed all the details...such as I Love Lucy's vine dishes.

Everybody Loves Raymond, Marie's Kitchen

I just received a note from one of my customers that reminded me why I love to sell vintage.

This lamp hung in my parents kitchen when I was a kid. After many moves up and down the east coast it lost it's way at some point. I forgot all about it until I saw an episode of Everybody Loves Raymond and this same lamp is hanging in Raymond's mom's kitchen. I Googled it and here it is at ur shop. Can't wait to see the look on my parents face when I hang this up. It's awesome!Robert Roan II

It's not just about finding vintage, it's about saving a bit of history. I love my job.

The MCM label, which originally stood for Michael Cromer Munich, was founded by Michael Cromer in 1976 in Munich, Germany. The company designed expensive leather suitcases and handbags which became popular during the 1980s for being "ostentatious and flashy." At the height of its popularity in 1993, it owned 250 branches worldwide and recorded sales of $250 million. Sadly the company had tax problems and had to be restructured ...but they are still in existence and continue to sell beautiful handmade leather pieces.

You can find great prices on vintage pieces of MCM today. The style is classic and , compared to some designers today, quite understated.
